PlaneWave Instruments is well-known among astroimagers for its exceptionally produced, high-end corrected Dall-Kirkham telescopes, massive mounts, cameras, and accessories. Its products set a high bar for professional-level astroimaging for advanced amateurs, enthusiasts, professionals, and institutions.
Rick Hedrick is not only the CEO of PlaneWave, but also the secretary of the Astronomy Foundation, so he’s active in outreach events and in industry events with scopes. It was my distinct pleasure to shoot a video with Rick two weeks ago at the Northeast Astronomy Forum (NEAF) in Suffern, New York, in which he describes the many products offered by PlaneWave and other highlights from the company.
Enjoy!
